"senior management position" "really believe that the only person someone should compete against is himself"

-> capitalist that wants to underpay people and justifies it through a lengthy verbose convoluted articulation

"It is difficult to get a man to understand something when his salary depends upon his not understanding it."

-Upton Sinclair

Think what you will, but like I said, it's served me and my company well over the years. We're still in business, employees are happy, morale is high, I give bonuses/raises when possible, and customers keep coming back. Am I a capitalist, sure! I want to innovate and offer the best product possible to try and convince a consumer to buy or invest in that product. When a customer is happy, they pay their bills. When they pay their bills, my employees get paid. After all that happens, I get paid. Any extra is applied to future projects. That's how it works.
